Wild Rhea and Bailey

Rylan loves to hang out with her 2nd cousin Bailey. The past week they went swimming at Aunt Jen's and got to celebrate Bailey's birthday together. They had a sleep over at Mimi's house and then next night we went and ate at PF Changs to celebrate. Happy Birthday Bailey! She is such a great help with Rylan and they love hanging out. Thank you Bailey!

Race for the Cure

Many of you know that Ryan's mom/Rylan's Mimi has breast cancer. She has finished her chemo treatments and is getting ready to start radiation. Some dear friends of Rick and Debbie, Carl and Barbara Bell, are going to partcipate in The Susan G. Komen Race For the Cure in support of Debbie. It will be the 3 day race for the cure in November. Over the 3 days they will walk 60 miles and sleep in tents for 2 nights. They both need to raise the required $2200.00 to participate. If you would like to donate to the cause please go to http://www.the3day.org/ Barbara's registration # is 2422338 and Carl's is 2422325.

Hanging out with Double G

A day doesn't go by without hearing Rylan say that she wants to go to Gaya's house. She loves hanging out with her Grammy and Grampy. Well her Grammy sorry Grampy but you know it is true just think of it as you are a bonus. They are very special to her and she loves spending time with them. If Luke and Bubba are there then it is a major plus. But either way she wakes up in the morning wanting to go to Gaya's house. It is so great to have them so close so we can go to Gaya's house. It is a win win for everyone because I totally get a break when we are there, I don't exist when Grammy is around. We love you guys!

Swim Lessons

Rylan just finished her second round of swim lessons. She knows how to kick her feet, move her arms, float, and her favorite thing to do is blow bubbles. She loves the water and has no fear of jumping in or going under. She gets to practice her swimming regularly at her Aunt Jen's house and the water park.

Happy 4th of July

We had a wonderful 4th! We got to go watch fireworks with Grammy, Grampy, Uncle Brent, Aunt Lesli, Luke and Bubba! We went to The Big League Dreams and it was a blast.

Waco

Ryan's Grandmother lives on the Brazos River in Waco. So we try to go down there and get on the water as much as possible. We usually go with his family the dogs and oh ya Devin. We have an island that Rylan loves to play on, our boat, then there is a shallow area that we can stand in and hang out. Here are some pics of our trips.

The Ranch

At the first of June we went to The Ranch with my family (Grammy, Grampy, Uncle Brent, Aunt Lesli, Luke and Bubba or his real name Logan) This was the second year in a row for us to go. It is so much fun, that hopefully we can go back next year and make it a tradition. We spent most of our time on mules and 4 wheelers driving throught the woods on unbelievable trails looking for deer. We saw a ton! Some other highlights included: horse back riding, swimming, paddle boating, jet skiing, going to the park, fishing, and just hanging out.

The Start of Summer

Rylan's 2nd birthday was just the beginning to a fun filled summer. We had a Little Mermaid swim party at our house with family. It was so much fun watching the kids swim and play. We are so lucky to have family close by to enjoy these moments with us.

Wild Rhea

I wanted a way to show off our beautiful baby girl, so I thought I would create a place so everyone can enjoy our Wild Rhea and her adventures. This is Wild Rhea and I out in the wild itself.
